Synopsis

Get ready to make a new friend and comrade as you embark on the interactive, papery adventure of Tearaway. Choose your messenger, ATOI or IOTA, who is on a mission to deliver an important message to you, and customize and design his appearance in the game. Your courier companion's expressive personality and plucky attitude will help you along the way, as both of you rely on each other's strengths to overcome perilous challenges. You'll soon be forming a lasting bond with this character, who needs your guidance to complete this very special delivery. Explore the exciting papercraft world of Tearaway — a world that is full of lost islands, forgotten forests, bottomless canyons and mysterious structures. As you uncover this magical dimension, inspired by half-forgotten stories and folklore, you'll meet the papercraft creatures that dwell within, help out new strange friends and encounter dangerous dilemmas. But the success of every mission and the delivery of the unique, important message relies on you — the co-pilot of the game who possesses God-like powers — as the papery world of Tearaway unfolds in your hands.

Designed to utilize the intuitive powers of your PS Vita, including the front and rear cameras, motion sensor, microphone, touch screen and rear-touch pad, Tearaway tears, folds or crumples under your fingertips in thrilling, unexpected and incredibly tactile ways. Reach up into the world using the rear-touch panel and watch your fingertips will appear in the game, manipulating the papercraft world to solve puzzles with the power of touch. Your PS Vita's features let you literally breathe life into the land to open new paths for your companion. Bring the world of Tearaway into your home as you're rewarded with real papercraft trophies that you can print out and construct, and send some of your home to the paper land — as you play, you'll see more and more of your own surroundings appear in the game. Brought to you from the creators of the LittleBigPlanet series, Tearaway transports you to a paper world full of adventurous imagination, enduring friendship and fulfilling teamwork.

Amazing Visual & Astounding Game Play!

Posted by: PutneyentuP from on 06/26/2015Tear away is a journey into a beautiful paper craft world, and the mechanics make almost perfect use of every feature of the VITA. I would say a must own for fans of Mario 64, Ratchet & Clank, or Spyro game style.

Fantastic!

Posted by: JetGirl from on 06/17/2015This game is fantastic! I've been wanting to own this game since it was released and once I finally got a PSVita system knew it was time to make the purchase. It's very popular so I was no longer able to find it in gaming stores. Thankfully it was still available here online. So much fun and great for all ages.

Charming and Creative

Posted by: N0Thanks from on 01/14/2015Hardly will you ever play a game that not only uses all of the features of a system and make them feel like natural additions to the game play rather than gimmicks. The graphics are origami style and colorful, the controls are intuitive , and the game is pure joy. The only negative is that the game is on the shorter side.

Possibly the best title for Vita!

Posted by: zillionika from on 12/05/2014I loved this game! There was a lot of interactivity and used all the weird features of the vita to their full potential (front- and rear-facing cameras, front- and back-touchscreens, mic).
The game is not too long and has replay value where there are many things to collect.
I am looking forward to my kids trying it out.
